Low-carbon (‘blue”) methanol is as a solution in the transition toward cleaner fuels and sustainable chemicals in North America. With breakthrough technologies such as ultra-low-emission hydrogen-fired methanol plants and biomass gasification, blue methanol is positioned as a cost-efficient and scalable pathway to decarbonize key industries while unlocking new opportunities in global trade and shipping.
This comprehensive briefing will provide an inside look at the projects, technologies, and partnerships driving methanol’s adoption in industries in North America and beyond. Participants will gain clarity on how policy incentives are accelerating investment, why companies are racing to secure offtake agreements, and what role methanol will play in achieving net-zero ambitions, especially in the maritime industry, in North America.
